Now into her third trimester, former Saved by the Bell star Tiffani Thiessen says “I feel big, but I feel good.”

She looks good, too – as evidenced in this photo of the actress showing off her growing bump at the 2nd Annual USA Network Awards Cocktail Reception in New York this week.

Tiffani, who is due with her first child in May, says she’s been experiencing some very unexpected pregnancy cravings:

“Sadly I was a vegetarian for so many years and I’ve been craving meat, which I hate to say because I’m such a huge supporter of not doing that. I feel like I guess this little one is wanting a lot of red meat.”

Before I got pregnant with my first, I didn’t eat red meat or pork, so I wasn’t a full vegetarian, but I craved big ole hamburgers and steaks so bad and boy we’re they good! 8 yrs later I’ve never gone back to my semi-vegetarian ways.

I craved red meat with my first and fruit with my second and soft pretzels with my third!

I’ve been wanting lemonade for some reason

Rachel

I craved steak and spicy foods and my daughter is definitely not a picky eater which is awesome! She loves spicy food and steak too now lol

Jane

I’m the opposite. I like red meat, but no thanks for now. I want fresh fruit and cottage cheese! Pennie, I’m drinking a bit too much lemonade these days, but a Dr. Pepper looks tempting.
